“Went above and beyond for our three dogs. She was able to help us out in very short notice. Our dogs are a bit much, but everything went great. We will definitely be using again next time we visit my parents.”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with love, patience, and attention to detail. Whether you’re heading out for the day or going on a longer trip, you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands! I work part time and can be available most days. I enjoy an early morning and would love to be there to support you and your pets needs! When taking your dog out at home I will keep them leashed unless requested otherwise. I can crate them if needed and will make sure they get all of the love and belly rubs they deserve!

About: Hi, I'm Meghan! a lifelong animal lover that you can count on. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I've grown up with a variety of animals including: dogs (both big and small), cats (both outgoing and timid), as well as even the smallest of pets (like hamsters, bunnies, snakes, fish, and lizards) and I truly believe our pets are family. While most of my experience comes from caring for my own animals, I'm attentive, patient, and committed to following any and all instructions to keep your pet safe and happy while you're away. This includes any specific routines, medications, or favorite toys. I'll make sure everything runs smoothly just the way they like it. Whether you need someone to drop in, go for a walk, or provide overnight care, I'd love to help. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone new and I promise to treat them like my own. I'm comfortable with all types of personalities and would welcome a meet-and-greet to learn more about your needs! I work part-time over the summer but I still have availability for early mornings, afternoons, evenings drop-ins/walks and overnights on most days depending on location. Your pets comfort and safety come first - especially in their own home. I take great care to follow any and all instructions closely so your pet can stick to their normal routine like feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications or playtime.


“Becca took great care of our three large pups! She was on time for each visit and stayed longer to ensure they all had outside time and extra snuggles. We will be repeat customers and recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”


About: I’ve always loved being around dogs, and I have taken care of a wide variety of them over the years. I enjoy long walks and playing outside. I work part time currently, so I have lots of free time for walks and playtime. I have the availability to let out dogs multiple times a day and stay over on weekdays. I am eager to follow any instructions I’m given to care for your dog in the best suited way for their own lifestyle and yours.

“Brittany was absent wonderful to work with! Very attentive and communicative with us the entire day. This was my first time ever using the app and she exceeded our expectations! 10/10 recommend.”


About: I’ve taken care of many pups over the years and now I’m looking to expand that with Rover! I grew up with dogs and don’t currently have any of my own so I will treat your furry friends as my own🐾 I am working part time and have good availability for day checks and stay-cations! Message me for more details and we can work something out! I do not offer in home care at my house, but I have experience both checking in and staying in others’ homes with their furry friends🐾

About: I’ve had experience with all types of dogs ranging from Akita’s to Boston terriers. At home I have a high strung Dutch Shepard that could play fetch till his heart explodes and a little purse princess that is content sleeping all day. I am very reliable and flexible. Life doesn’t get much better than being paid to hangout with dogs 😂 I work two jobs. My week job is done by 10:30 in the morning. I usually get a workout in after and my day is done by noon. On weekends I serve wedding so my availability will be scarce. I am paid 30/hr for both but if you pay me more you become my first priority. My dogs at home have an enclosed dog run that is a little less than an acre where they can relive themselves and enjoy outside without the stress of them leaving. My Dutch shepherd goes on walks and hikes with my mom and I. In a clients home I am willing to go on walks and/or bring the dog(s) to parks. On the other hand I am a college student that can hangout with the dog at home and let them out periodically while I study my class material.

About: With two years of hands-on experience working in a dog daycare boarding facility, followed by a year at a groomers your pets are in very safe hands! With a flexible schedule that allows me to tailor my services to meet the specific needs of each pet, I pride myself on creating a safe, comfortable, and engaging environment for your beloved pets. Whether it's cuddle time on the couch, interactive play sessions, or simply ensuring that your pet feels loved and cared for while you're gone, rest assured that I treat each pet as if they were my own. Your furry friends are in good hands with me!

About: Animals love me for my calm, loving demeanor. I am a good pack leader and provide a safe and fun place for your fur baby while your away. I am retired with plenty of time on my hands. It gets lonely at times so I enjoy the company of both dogs and cats. I have a large yard with room to roam, sniff and play. You can trust that I will take just as good of care of your fur babies as I do my own.

“Katie was great! My elderly dog, who can be anxious, was very comfortable with her and happy when I got home. Sent me pictures to let me know she was there which was also comforting for me. Would definitely use again.”


About: Hi! My name is Marissa and I am 25 years old. I am an ambitious, adventurous, vivacious individual. I am currently in my second year of college at Mott Community College working toward my Associate's in Psychology, so that I may then transfer to the University of Michigan to achieve my Bachelor's. Once achieving my Bachelor's, I would like to work as a counselor for a few years before going back to school for my Master's so that I may eventually become a bereavement therapist and open a private practice. I am currently a member of the Psychology Society at Mott and I was selected to join the Mott Community College's chapter of The National Society of Leadership and Success. I have been taking care of dogs of various breeds since I was old enough to take care of myself, having owned numerous amounts of dogs for about 20 years. Neighbors, friends, family, and a few Rover clients have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and spend time with their pets for the past 5 years -- possibly longer. I am not certified yet, but I intend to take a CPR & First Aid course for dogs as soon as possible -- hopefully, I never have to use it. But it would bring me peace of mind knowing that if there were ever a situation with my dog or someone else's dog, I'd know what to do. I intend to take a pet grooming course as I would be able to offer more grooming services. And lastly, I also intend to take a dog obedience/training course so that I may offer training services as well. Being a full-time student takes up the majority of my time, thus I am looking to start up cleaning, dog walking/dog-sitting, and babysitting/nannying businesses so that I may keep a steady income for the next few years. I am taking all of my classes online and will eventually switch to going on-campus for my classes, but that will most likely be in a few years when I am attending U of M -- which would require me to move out of the Northern Michigan area. As a member of the Psychology Society and the NSLS, I may occasionally need to travel for a couple of days to Flint for an event -- especially considering I may apply for and take on one of the positions in the Psychology Society. With that being said, I would prefer to have a decent amount of time to prepare and set a date on my calendar for any services I will be providing for you. I will also make sure to keep my availability up-to-date. I would also appreciate cancellations to be in advance as well, but I do understand that life happens. In clients' homes, I will take your fur baby/babies to any nearby parks and/or long walks on any trails. I offer grooming services such as bathing, ear cleaning, and hair brushing. I request that if I am in your home, you leave me a list of my responsibilities. I do not mind caring for young puppies that are still in the process of potty training. I just request that you let me know exactly what cleaning supplies you would like me to use to clean up any messes if he/she has an accident -- preferably this won't happen as I will be around and will have the time necessary to avoid accidents inside. Currently, I am not offering boarding or doggy daycare services because my dog does not get along well with other dogs. But I do plan to start offering those services again in the future... I have a decent-sized yard, but it is not fenced in. I have a leash hooked up outside to easily let your dog/dogs out for potty breaks if the weather is too bad for a walk. I have two full baskets filled with toys from bark box to play with and I try to stay stocked up on treats from the Three Dog Bakery! You can bring your treats as well if you give your dog a specific brand of treats. I have no problem with dogs getting on my furniture, but I do also have an extremely comfortable Serta dog bed if you have taught them to stay off of furniture. If your dog is puppy pad trained rather than trained to go potty outside, then I would need you to provide the pads as I do not have any. I am also okay with boarding/dog-sitting a puppy in my home once I am offering those services again as well, even if he/she is still in the process of potty training. I just request that you provide a kennel or crate in case I need to leave my home for anything. I would not leave the puppy attended for longer than an hour and a half.

About: In over 30 years of grooming and caring for dogs and cats, I’ve gained valuable experience in making them feel comfortable and at home. ❤️ I am currently working part time and have a variable schedule. I am able to take breaks to return home and accommodate all the pets needs. we have a nice backyard that has an invisible fence with a mature, small little dog to play with your pets. He is both cat and dog trained.

“I had Kylie come check on my girl during a long work shift. My request was to let her out and feed her. This was my first experience with Kylie so naturally I checked my Ring camera and she went above and beyond my request. She played fetch in the yard with my dog and spent more time with her than I had asked. I highly recommend Kylie, it is obvious she cares for animals and gives them lots of love. I will continue to request Kylie ☺️”
